P-39Q-1 "Devastating Devil" (Arma Hobby 1/48)
The latest kit from Arma Hobby in 1/48 scale β P-39Q which follows their 1/72 Cobra's line. The kit was released in July this year, so it's quite fresh.
I've decided to build the model in a very attractive and unusual camouflage scheme of the 46th FS, Gilbert Islands, Pacific. Cobra in Coral Sand looks interesting.

Dmitry, thatβs a stunning Airacobra! I was unaware of you wip thread so this took me by surprise. Beautiful work in all regards, Arma should use your pics to advertise this kit π
Thanks for sharing
@holzhamer Thanks, Pedro! I've created WIP thread once the kit was ready to paint, so it didn't last long π
Fantastic P-39, Dmitry @starfar! π€© I like that sand color a lot, too. Good choice and a great result here! π
@garybrantley Thank you, Gary!
Sharp job. Love the look of this model in this scheme. Well done!
Thanks Brian!
Wow. Great work on a very unique plane. Your panel lines are amazing. I never get them to come out that sharp. Very nice color choice.
Thank you, Mark! Regarding the panel lines - I think it depends on a kit. In this case the panel lines are sharp and deep enough to keep the wash. And also, I use AMMO oil brushers as a wash - the are stronger than regular oils.
What a fantastic result, Dmitry @starfar
The painting and weathering is really nice.
@johnb Thank you, John!

Congratulations!
